Most  agree  that  the  years  spent  in  high  school  are 
the  best  times  of  our  lives.  STUDENT  LIFE  repre- 
sents the  many  extra-curricular  activities  when 
friends  get  together  to  have  fun  and  "kick  back 
and  relax".  Most  of  our  favorite  high  school 
memories  occur  outside  the  classroom.  Homecom- 
ing, Prom,  assemblies,  and  dances  will  be  etched  in 
our  memories  forever.  Vf hen  the  final  bell  rings, 
everyone  rushes  to

Fads  and  Fashions. 


Fads  and  Fashions 
are  a  sign  of  the  times.  They 
reflect  individual  attitudes 
and  lifestyles. 

At  Charlevoix  High 
School  Fads  and  Fashions 
change  with  time.  This  year 
our  student  body  has  gone 
"Back  In  Time"  with  style. 

When  walking 

through  the  halls  at  C.H.S.  it 
was  common  tb  see  many 
variations  of  today's  most 
j|0j>ular  fashions.

Homecoming  is  always  a  fun  time  of  year, 
especially  Fall  Homecoming.   The  float  building 
brings  out  class  spirit,  and  spirit  week  brings  the 
whole  school  together.  There's  no  other  time  of 
year  when  the  students  can  dress  in  "wacky" 
clothes  and  the  teachers  can  eat  pie  'til  their  faces 
turn  "blue".   C.H.S   loves  Homecoming.   It's  a 
tradition  that  will  bring  good  time  memories  for 
years  to  come. 


Crown  Bearers,  Daniel  Swenor  and 
Hannah  Bradley,  anxiously  wait  for 
the  parade  to  begin.     »

The  highlight  of  the  assembly:  sophomore  Brian 
VanDeCar  and  freshman  Catie  Jo  Campeau  amaze 
the  crowd  with  their  acoustic  version  of  "What 
Child  Is  This?" 


The  1994  Christmas  Assembly  was  a  fantastic 
success.  There  was  a  cheery  atmosphere  created  by 
the  many  hours  of  hard  work  by  the  students  and 
faculty.  Afterwards  a  Christmas  Dance  was 
sponsored  by  the  Student  Council.  Although  there 
was  not  a  blizzard  whirling  outside,  the  hanging 
garlands  and  tinsel  created  a  lovely  and  memorable 
evening.

A  paend  in  need  is  a  pxend  indeed 


"As  fire  and  hearth  are  inseparable,  so  are  the 
hearts  of  faithful  friends." 

Friends,  you  can't  get  through  high  school 
without  'em.  Friends  are  there  for  each  other 
through  thick  and  thin,  and  you'll  hardly  ever 
see  one  without  the  other.  These  "buddies"  are 
like  "peas  and  carrots".  (Remember  the  movie, 
Forrest  Gump?)

Academics  today  are  more  than  just  learning  the 
"basics".  Students  don't  learn  from  just  teachers 
and  textbooks.  They  learn  from  fellow  students, 
experiences,  and  contact  with  the  outside  world. 
Academics  today  are  making  students  smarter  and 
better  prepared  to  take  on  the  future.  Clubs  and 
organizations  give  students  a  sense  of 
responsibility  and  belonging  that  helps  prepare 
them  for  life  after  high  school.  Most  strive  to  be 
ahead  of  their  time.

T.M.I.  Enjoys  Last  Year  at  C.H.S. 


The  T.M.I. .  (Trainable  Mentally  Impaired)  room  was  a  very  special  class.  They  were 
hard  workers  who  deserve  a  lot  of  credit  for  all  they  did  for  C.H.S.  They  got  along 
very  well  with  the  student  body.  Everyday  they  washed  trays  and  cleaned  the  tables 
in  the  cafeteria,  as  well  as  sweep  the  halls.  Once  a  week  they  filled  up  the  juice 
machine. 

They  knew  how  to  have  fun  by  going  bowling,  skiing,  and  throwing  parties.  Near 
the  end  of  the  school  year  they  went  to  Call  of  the  Wild  in  Gay  lord.  There  they  rode 
go-carts,  bumper  cars,  and  toured  the  museum.  The  T.M.I,  even  had  their  own  prom. 
Every  spring  the  T.M.I,  room  combined  with  other  sheltered  workshops  in  the  area 
and  sponsored  a  track  and  field  day.  The  T.M.I,  kids  have  become  a  part  of  C.H.S., 
and  though  they  will  be  missed,  we  wish  them  success  in  the  future. 


Sylvia  Potter  is  proud  to  be  a 
1995  C.H.S.  graduate. 


Every  year  Ms.  Marti  Mathers  sponsers  a  "Kids  Are  Worth  It!"  Day.

Rayder  spirit  prevails  even  in  Cheboygan 


This  year  some  of  our  finest  hockey 
players  were  members  of  the  Knight  of 
Columbus  Hockey  Team  in  Cheboygan. 
This  group  of  dedicated  young  men 
spent  hours  practicing  their  skills  on 
ice.  Although  the  team's  goalie,  Cam 
Carr,  demonstrated  his  boxing  tech- 
niques on  the  opposing  team's  goalie's 
face,  the  team  still  had  a  winning 
season.  In  fact,  this  team  beat  out  the 
toughest  competition  in  Lansing  to  win 
the  State  Championship!  Way  to  go, 
guys! 


The  winning  Team  included  Principal  Gary  Grundman,  Joe 
Grundman,  and  Cam  Carr. 


The  Charlevoix  boys  defend  their  goal. 


It's  prom  night  and  Joe  Grundman,  Cam

Mrs.  Marty  Mathers  didn't  have  much  trouble  this 
year  sparking  creativity  out  of  the  art  students.  This

murals  in  the  hall,  to  a  life  size  sculpture  which 
showed  up  in  Mr.  Grundman's  office,  to  the  many 
talented  student's  art  works  which  were  displayed  at 
the  annual  art  show,  Charlevoix  High  has  a  first  class 
art  department.  With  all  that  talent  roaming  the  halls,

Twenty-six  C.H.S.  French  students  joined  Madam 
and  Monsieur  Wendt  for  ten  fun  filled  days  in 
the  beautiful  country  of  France.  They  started  out 
the  trip  flying  from  Traverse  City,  to  Chicago,  to 
Paris.  There  was  no  time  to  rest  after  the  long 
flight;  it  was  time  to  explore!  After  two  days  in 
Paris,  it  was  on  to  the  magnificent  Loire  Valley 
and  two  nights  Tours.  Next  on  the  agenda,  were 
Toulouse,  which  everyone  agreed  was  an  exciting 
city,  and  then  Nimes,  where  they  visited  the 
Roman  Amphitheatre  and  Le  Pond  de  Gaurd. 
The  grand  finale  was  two  nights  in  the  "Souse  of 
France,"  where  they  explored  Nice,  travelled  to 
Eze  and  Monaco,  enjoyed  the  summer-like 
weather,  and  even  went  swimming  in  the 
Mediterranean!  It  truly  was  paradise!  They'll 
never  forget  Burns'  Porche  ride,  Anique,  the  Nazi 
kids,  Seirge  and  his  magic  tricks,  or  "Scrota's" 
problem  with  green  beans.  A  great  time  was  had 
by  all.  Everyone  on  the  trip  agrees  when  they  say, 
"Thanks,  Madam,  for  giving  us  the  experience  of 
a  lifetime!"

Y63.rbOOKI  Rayder  staff  gives  own  time 


The  inexperienced  94-95  yearbook  staff  began  the  year  with  a  shaky  start  Soon 
into  the  year  everyone  realized  it  was  going  to  be  difficult  and  require  a  lot  of 
teamwork  in  order  to  make  this  year's  book  a  success.  Since  publications  was  not 
an  "official"  C.H.S.  class,  staff  members  along  with  Yearbook  Advisor,  Dixie 
Ashton  and  Student  Teacher,  Karen  Lerch  gave  up  nights,  weekends  and  even 
most  of  their  summer  vacation  to  complete  the  94-95  Rayder.  Some  new  features 
of  the  book  include  the  extended  color  section.  Though  everyone  involved  with 
the  94-95  Rayder  would  agree  the  word  "headache"  accurately  describes  feelings 
toward  this  book,  everyone  also  would  agree  the  94-95  Rayder  is  the  best  year- 
book C.H.S.  has  ever  seen.

People:  TIME  WILL  TELL 


Our  school  is  made  of  many  things:  the 
building,  the  books,  the  desks,  and  the 
people.  Although  these  are  all  necessary 
ingredients,  people  are  the  most  impor- 
tant part  of  our  school.  They  give  our 
school  personality  and  flavor.  Students, 
teachers,  staff,  and  friends—combining 
each  unique  person  together,  makes  our 
school  what  it  is.  Everyone's  personality 
helps  to  mold  the  image  of  our  school,  as 
our  school  helps  to  mold  the  image  of 
us.  What  will  become  of  these  people?

103  Seniors  Graduate  June  4, 1995 


1995  Senior  Class  Graduation  Poem 
by  Rev.  Bruce  Hamilton 

Good  afternoon  C. H.S.I 

This  is  not  the  student  bulletin  as  deliuered  by  Drew. 
It  is  greetings  to  the  class  of  '95  and  friends. 
From  me  and  Vou  know  who  .... 

There's  much  that  could  be  said  about  a  class, 

Whose  "electrical  skills"  almost  turned  the  Middle  School  brown. 

There's  much  to  remember  about  "Kiss  or  Kill," 

On  the  Elementary  School  playground. 

Don't  forget  Mark's  "One  Singular  Sensation," 
Or  Scott  and  Callie's  "Sleeping  Beauty;" 
Rnd  Liz  Grunch  who  set  an  all  time  record, 
By  doing  her  basketball  duty. 

Then  there  are  out  two  angles  watching  us, 
Who  we  all  miss  quite  dearly; 
But  if  you  look  in  your  hearts,  you'll  always  see 
Samatha  and  Heather  clearly. 

How  could  Sarah  Warner  euer  think, 

Sawdust  would  euer  put  a  fire  out? 

Hh,  bot  watching  her  on  the  girl's  soccer  team  -- 

Her  kicks  made  fans  cheer  and  shout! 

it's  true,  you  went  to  Mackinac  instead  of  Washington  D.C. 
But  you  haue  done  so  much  more! 
Vou  haue  earned  more  academic  honors  and  letters 
Than  perhaps  any  class  before. 

There's  a  large  group  of  Western  Broncos 

Some  Spartans,  and  a  bunch  of  Uloluerines. 

I  happen  to  be  partial  towards  an  Anderson  Uniuersity  Rauen, 

Who  has  Steuen  Spielbergian  Dreams. 

Oh,  who  can  forget  James  Conlan, 

That  teacher's  aide  ewtrordianaire; 

Only  watching    Aladdin'  in  French  fiue  times 

Rs  Madame  s  sub  can  possibly  compare! 

Since  Cue  hit  a  few  highlights, 
Rnd  some  others  you  may  wish  to  forget, 
Vou  Know  111  ho  says  as  a  graduate's  Father, 
I  can  say  a  few  Daddy  type  things  yet. 

Vou  are  not  the  only  ones, 
Who  feel  it's  been  a  long  strange  trip. 
We  parents  think  it  was  only  yesterday. 
That  we  carried  you  on  our  hip. 


Rs  you  turn  this  corner  in  your  liues, 
Rlways  remember  we  care. 
Though  you  may  grow  up,  neuer  grow  away, 
For  we  haue  so  much  more  to  share. 

And  Vou  Know  III  ho  makes  it  easier, 
He's  always  been  ready  to  be  your  friend.

year  with  a  bang!  They 
flooded  the  academic  classes, 
drowned  the  varsity  sports, 
and  swam  their  way  to  the  top 
leadership  roles  at  C.H.S. 
The  Junior  class  has  also  done 
a  lot  for  not  only  for  C.H.S, 
but  for  the  community.  The 
Academic  English  HI  classes 
dedicated  their  free  time 
volunteering  for  senior 
citzens,  writing  biographies, 
and  even  sponsoring  a  "Jun- 
ior/Senior" (senior  citizens) 
dance.  The  year  was  also 
marked  by  the  planning  of  the 
Junior/Senior  Prom  at  the 
Arboretum  Restaurant  April 
29,  which  was  a  tremendous 
success.  Overall,  the  class  of 
'96  had  a  prosperous,  fun,  and

Your  Time  Will  Come 


The  Sophomore  Class  was  very 
busy  from  the  minute  they 
stepped  into  school  the  first  day. 
They  started  the  year  by  spon- 
soring the  first  dance  of  the 
football  season.  Taking  an 
environmental  stand,  the  class 
of  1997  decided  to  sponsor  a 
recycling  program.  In  March, 
they  worked  diligently  on  a  St. 
Patrick's  Day  raffle.  They 
collected  donations  from  busi- 
nesses and  individuals  in  order 
to  raffle  off  their  prizes.  They 
ended  the  year  with  memories 
of  fun  and  exciting  activities-but 
anxious  for  the  upcoming  year. 

Sophomore  Class  Officers  and  Student  Council  members  include  Nick  Bogart  (Student  Council  Representative), 
Rachel  Newcomb  (Student  Council  Representative),  Jessica  Babb  (Class  President),  Becky  Blissett  (Class  Vice- 
President),  Meg  Spang  (Class  Secretary  and  Treasurer),  and  Anne  Scott  (Student  Council  Representative).

his  25  years  at  C.H.S,  Mr.  Green  also  taught 
world  history,  geography,  and  English  classses 
as  well  as  sponsering  the  senior  class  several 
times. 

Mr.  Green  has  been  married  to  his 
wife  Leah  for  30  years,  and  they  have  two  sons, 
Eric  and  Heath. 

In  his  retirement  years  Mr.  Green 
plans  to  read,  listen  to  his  favorite  jazz,  blue 
grass  and  folk  music;  go  on  wilderness  conoe 
and  camping  trips,  and  tour  the  countryside  on 
his  motorcycle. 

Mr.  Green  advises  C.H.S.  students: 
"Take  care  in  setting  your  goals  and  then 
persevere." 

"Thanks  and  good  luck,  Mr.  Green. 
We'll  never  forget  you!" 


Mr.  Green  poses  by  the  American 
flag  in  government  class. 


Mr.  Ed  Crook  made  math  fun!! 


Mr.  Ed  Crook  smiles  at  his 
studentu  wondering,  "How  many 
more  days  until  retirement " 


After  31  years  of  teaching  math  (the  last  25  at  C.H.S),  Mr.  Ed  Crook  is  looking 
forward  to  retirement. 

In  addition  to  teaching,  he  helped  with  Pep  Club,  Track,  and  Cross  Country,  and 
was  often  a  class  advisor. 

Mr.  Crook  has  always  been  very  involved  with  his  family.  His  wife  Judy  teaches 
computer  classes  at  the  K-5  building  and  both  his  sons  graduated  in  1995:  Steve  from  C.H.S. 
and  Bill  from  M.S.U. 

According  to  Mr.  Crook:  "I've  tried  to  teach  with  a  sense  of  humor  so  that  all 
students  could  enjoy  math  class  even  though  it  might  not  be  their  best  subject." 

Hopefully,  Mr.  Crook  will  now  have  more  time  to  enjoy  his  boat  and  puttering 
around  with  anything  mechanical. 

"Thanks  Mr.  Crook  for  making  math  fun  and  believing  in  all  of  us.  We'll  miss 
you!" 


Mr.  Crook  gets  ready 
to  drive  away  from 
C.H.S.  on  last  time  in 
his  1965  Corvette 
that  he  bought  new 
his  first  year  of 
teaching  30  years 
ago. 


Honored  at  a  reception  for  retiring  teachers  are 
Mr.  Nelson  Green,  Mr.  Ed.  Crook,  Mrs.  Mary- 
Ann  Chew  and  Mr.  Vince  Chew.

Sports  today  are  more  than  just  learning  the 
"basics  ".  Students  don 't  learn  from  just  teachers 
and  textbooks.  They  learn  from  competition, 
experiences,  and  team  work.  Sports  today  are 
making  students  smarter  and  better  prepared  to 
take  on  the  future.  Sports  give  students  a  sense  of 
responsibility  and  belonging  that  helps  prepare 
them  for  life  after  high  school.

counted.    The  overall  record  of  9-12

showed  their  Rayder  spirit  was  not

Wrestlers  "head-lock"  competition!!! 


p 


fllJfVfWrf  lv. 


Wrestlers  include:  Assistant  Coach  Gregg  Whitley,  Jon 
Browe,  Ron  Haggard,  Bruce  Reinhart,  Brian  VanDeCar, 
Chris  Dominich,  Bobby  Gillum,  Ryan  Pittman,  Coach  Greg 
Bryan,  Jason  Cesaro,  Kyle  Russel,  Brad  Eaton,  and 
managers  John  Hart  and  Tony  Cesaro. 


The  strongest,  most  competitive  sport  around  is 
wrestling.  The  1994-95  season  was  exceptional 
with  Ron  Haggard,  Jason  Metiva,  Bruce 
Reinhart,  Dan  Harris,  and  Kyle  Russell  all 
qualifying  for  Regional  competition.  With 
strained  eyes,  pounding  hearts,  and  bitten 
fingernails,  we  saw  Bruce  Reinhart  wrestle  his 
way  to  State.  Coach  Greg  Bryan  and  his 
talented  athletes  should  be  complimented  on 
such  an  outstanding  effort! 


I'll  drag  him  to  his  grave!"  exclaims  Jason  Metiva. 


Dan  Harris  gets  himself  out  of  a  jam  and 
later  qualifies  for  Regionals. 


Ron  Haggard  shows  his  opponent  the  right  way  to  win  a 
match. 


Bruce  Reinhart  is  ready  to  attack  any  opponent.

Tennis  team:  (top)  Matt  Krynski,  Adam  Laucher,  Brett 
Vanderheide,  Traci  Allison,  Lilly  Pair,  Shay  Arnold,  Amy

Whitley,  Kristen  Ricks,  Annie  Martin,  Shelly  Riley,  Eric 
Halverson,  Sarah  Lundy,  Beth  Norton,  Coach  Erik 
Lundteigen. 


It's  tough  being  a  girl 
competiting  against  boys, 
but  #2  singles  player  Amy 
Freidinger  can  intimidate 
any  male  any  day! 


The  94-95  tennis  team  did  surprisingly  well  this 
year  and  broke  the  six  year  dry  spell  as  they 
qualified  for  State  Finals.  The  number  one  doubles 
team  of  Chris  Matye  and  Matt  Dietel  dominated 
the  conference  and  the  region  as  did  the  number 
two  doubles  team  of  Kevin  Balch  and  Brad  Parsel. 
Also  at  regionals,  the  number  three  singles  player, 
Shay  Arnold  finished  in  second  place  as  the  team 
shocked  Harbor  Springs  by  stealing  second  place 
from  them.  It  was  a  great  year  overall,  and  we 
wish  continued  success  to  next  year's  team. 


The  outstanding  #1  doubles  team  of 
Matt  Dietel  and  Chris  Matye  are 
regional  champs. 


Getting  pumped  up  for  his 
big  match  at  State  Finals  is 
#1  singles  player,  Eric 
Anderson.

The  Varsity  Softball  team  had  an  excellent 
season.  They  had  many  talented  and  experienced 
players  who  worked  hard  together.  The  team 
placed  first  in  the  District  finals  and  overall 
everyone  was  satisfied  with  their  achievements. 
The  team  really  appreciated  the  effort  and 
dedication  put  in  by  the  coaches,  Rick  Grunch, 
Bob  Eveleigh,  Jim  Potter,  and  Larry  Potter.  They 
were  the  ones  who  made  the  girls  a  success.

Zach  Kehrer,  Joe  Grundman. 


Varsity  Baseball  finished  the  year  with  9-16  record. 
They  struggled  throughout  the  season,  but  still 
made  it  to  districts.  During  the  games  the  team 
held  together  but  then  lost  a  very  close  final  game 
to  East  Jordon  .  With  12  returning  players,  Mark 
Boss  being  named  All  Conference  for  Short  Stop 
and  Pitcher  and  Brad  Williams  being  named 
Honorable  Mention,  the  Baseball  team  is  sure  to 
make  its  mark  in  the  '96  season.

The  1994-1995  Rayder  Yearbook  is  dedicated  to  two 
members  of  the  class  of  '95: 


Dear  Sam. 

You  were  the  wind  in  my  sails  that  kept  me  gliding  through  each 

day, 

You  were  the  twinkling  star  in  the  night  sky  that  helped  me  find 

my  way. 

You  were  the  helping  hand  that  pulled  me  up  after  a  face. 

You  were  the  life  preserver  that  kept  afloat  in  the  ocean  of  life. 

You  were  the  laughter  that  made  me  look  forward  to  each  and 

every  day. 

You  were  the  companion  with  whom  I  could  do  anything. 

You  were  the  friendship  that  truly  made  me  feel  like  the  richest 

woman  on  earth. 

You  were  the  love  that  gave  me  a  sister  for  life. 

You  were  the  keeper  of  a  special  place  in  my  heart  that  will  never 

be  replaced. 

You  were  the  fleeting  dove  that  rose  too  quickly  from  my  life  into 

the  everlasting  crystalline  blue  sky. 

You  are  the  smile  I  will  miss  forever. 

Your  loving  friend, 

Lisa

Memories 

In  Loving  Memory  of 

Heather  Elizabeth  Klieber 

1  have  a  photograph. 

I  have  a  recollection  of  the  past. 

I  have  chills. 

I  have  the  words  that  slip  away  from  the  task  of  writing  about  you. 

How  do  I  explain  to  those  who  didn't  know  you  now  that  you're  gone. 

The  answer  is  easy. 

I  can't. 

They  will  never  understand  what  it  was  like  to  lose  so  dear  a  friend. 

As  children  we  played  in  the  gravel  pit  behind  the  trailer,  hunting  frogs,  playing  with  snakes 


We  would  talk  about  what  we  would  be  "  when  we  grew  up" . 

You  wanted  to  be  an  animal  biologist. 

I  didn't  have  a  clue. 

Now  I'm  almost  "grown-up" ,  but  I've  had  to  do  it  without  you. 

Somehow  it  Just  doesn't  seem  fair  that  you  will  never  sec  the  world,  that  you  will  never  reach 

eighteen,  that  you  wilt  never  get  to  be  alt  you've  dreamed. 

Someone  says,  "Life's  not  fair" . 

So  what! 

That  doesn't  change  the  way  1  feci. 

You  are  a  spirit  floating  on  the  wind,  leaiing  the  rest  of  us  behind  to  mourn  for  you. 

We  all  sent  a  piece  of  us  with  you. 

For  every  time  loved  ones  die,  a  part  of  us  dies  with  them. 

Paul  Simon  wrote:  "Preserve  your  memories;  they're  all  that's  left  you. " 

Could  anything  be  more  true?

Iraqi  leader  Saddam  Hussein 
orders  his  troops  to  the  border 
of  oil-rich  Kuwait.  The  U.S. 
sends  350  warplanes  to  the 
area  to  support  the  Kuwaiti 
forces.  By  October  11,  Hussein 
orders  the  withdrawal  of  most 
of  his  forces. 


Russian  President  Boris  Yeltsin 
calls  out  his  poorly  trained 
military  to  subdue  a  rebellion 
in  Chechnya,  a  southern 
republic  the  size  of 
Connecticut.  Critics  accuse 
Yeltsin  of  resorting  to  total- 
itarian methods  of  the  old 
communist  Soviet  regime  to 
keep  the  shaky  Russian 
Federation  unified. 


Europe's  worst  flood  in  this 
century  kills  at  least  30  people 
across  Europe.  Inland  floods 
caused  by  melting  Alpine  snow 
and  relentless  rains  hit 
Belgium,  France,  Germany, 
and  the  Netherlands,  whose 
famous  dike  system  begins  to 
crumble  late  in  January  1995  in 
the  face  of  rampaging  rivers. 
Dutch  authorities  evacuate 
250,000  people  from  the 
lowlands. 


Camilla  Parker  Bowles, 
allegedly  Prince  Charles' 
mistress,  announces  her 
divorce  from  her  husband, 
Andrew  Parker  Bowles. 
Princess  Diana  is  said  to  be 
negotiating  a  divorce  from 
Charles,  who  will  be  free  to 
remarry  without  giving  up  the 
throne— unless  unhappy 
subjects  force  a  referendum  on 
the  monarchy. 


More  than  900  passengers  die, 
140  are  rescued  when  the 
Estonia,  a  15,500-ton  Baltic 
ferry  sinks  off  the  coast  of 
Finland  in  a  violent  nighttime 
storm.  The  storm's  30-foot 
waves  swamp  the  ship  which 
lists  and  sinks  in  a  matter  of 
minutes. 


After  a  peasant 
uprising  in  Chiapas 
and  two  major 
political  murders,  Mexico 
gets  a  new  president. 
Ernesto  Zedillo,  an 
economist,  assumes  office 
only  to  face  a  stockmarket 
crash,  a  ruined  economy, 
and  a  loss  of  international 
confidence  in  the  wake  of 
the  North  American  Free 
Trade  Agreement. 


On  July  25,  U.S.
